It depends from time to time. (have about 8 axes including one bass)
But at the moment it's a black Jackson RR1 with gold pinstripes ("black beauty"), have it customized a bit.

Well as a newbie, I'm not sure if this will make or break my reputation around here but I use Epiphone Dots almost exclusively. I tried the Casino since I'm a huge Beatles fan but I got way too much feedback. I play a lot of folk rock so it works. I had an Ibanez RG370 but I sold it off not too long ago. The sound was pretty decent. I'd love to add a Sandoval polka dot V to my collection someday, though.

lol, its good of you to consider your reputation but we dont class people round here :). We treat everyone equally whether they are mod, newbie or the senior. I am a fan of Ibanez as well so its all good. Epiphones are nice guitars as well although ive never played one :)

Epiphone is more or less like a Gibson.
i've actually heard that some Epi's are better than Gibsons.
The '56 Goldtop w/P90's for example.

... other than that I agree with skezza.
I don't judge people by their guitars.
Sure, I might not like them or I may
think they don't look too good.
It's however each and every persons desicion
which guitar they choose to play :!:

the difference between Ed & Brian is that Ed's

I like the white jackson, but sometimes it tends to look a little unbalanced.



But this one's pretty cool

I was just pointing it out... you seem pretty high on Brian May and sounded as though, like so many others, you were knocking Ed and his contributions to the guitar world. That's all...

FYI, I dig both Brian and Ed.
I was merely pointing out that Brians guitar was made from scratch
where Ed took an already existing shape and modified it.
And yes, the topic is about guitars, not the music industry :!:
